Three SXSW reports from ThatCanadianGirl including Kathy Sierra’s talk

I’m still catching up on my SXSW reports and feeds even though SXSWi has been over for a week now!  I found three posts from TheCanadianGirl with her notes from some of the sessions:

What Teens want online and on their mobile phones (btw it’s more than ringtones and porn)
A/B Testing
Cognitive Seduction (aka Kathy Sierra’s talk)

Canadians on the Web 2.0 scene–speaking, presenting, and generally out there

Continuing my usual cheerleading for Web 2.0 in Canada, here are some good links highlighting folks who have been on panels recently (SXSWi, Convergence Integration) and just have some good news to share.
First off is Aidan Henry’s list of Victoria startups to watch:
A few of the start-ups that are paving the way in the Victoria […]

SXSW pictures–just a quick note about tags

SXSWi was awesome.  I took thousands of pictures and posted over 900 of the ones I liked.

To that end, as part of my process for getting the pictures online I didn’t do much individual tagging of pics.  A lot of you have started to put your own tags in … which was exactly my […]

SXSWi: The conversation has been in the BlogHaus

What a week.  Okay it hasn’t been a week per se, but man it sure feels like it.  In the halls, over meals, at the end of the day–my friends ask me “what sessions did you see…” My answer has been “I went to one all week, Darren’s.”.  Why?  It’s pretty simple really.  You might […]

SXSW thoughts from a first time attendee

It’s Sunday.  I’ve been here in Austin since (late) Thursday night and wow this is an experience.  Yesterday I didn’t catch a single panel, and I didn’t mind at all.  The BlogHaus was where people were hanging out and chatting and, well the chances of learning something cool was pretty good.
Today I got up bright […]

SXSW first (part) day recap

It’s morning here in Austin.  Why no live blogging from yesterday?  Well there wasn’t much to live blog.  The sessions didn’t start until 3:30 (because badge pickup started at 10 AM) , I’m told that badge pickup at SXSW is always insane-I wasn’t disappointed, it was long.  About an hour.  But I have my badge, […]

We should have a Vancouver-Canadian blog meetup at SXSWi

If all goes according to the (by the seat of my pants) plan I’ll be attending my first SXSWi this week.  I’m going to be doing double duty there covering it for b5media (therefore blogging here) and for Intruders Canada (Intruders is sending me there).
I’ll be a little busy I’m guessing, but I think we […]
